Eighth birthday party

We were on the road down to Florida on Namine’s birthday, so now that we’re back home, we threw her a proper party. Namine was fine with this, but with one exception: she didn’t want presents for herself. Instead, she asked for gifts to donate to Children’s Hospital.

It was so great having everyone who could come. We know that the summer months are crazy busy, and we appreciate everyone’s generosity, gifts, and appetites. Jessica, her sister Jewel, Namine, and I had a lot of fun preparing the food and gift baggies for everyone.
